The suspect fled the scene.\n\nThe woman told police that the suspect was her colleague, who had offered to take her to work. However, she alleged that he changed the route and attempted to take her elsewhere against her will.\n\nAccording to the sources, the woman got off the motorcycle after noticing that the rider had changed direction.\n\nThe PAF, who had been observing the entire incident, pulled his car alongside and stopped. At that point, the suspect opened fire, fatally shooting the officer.\n\nLaw enforcement agencies have launched a search operation to arrest the suspect.\n\nGroup Captain Asim is survived by his widow, a daughter and a son.\n\nMeanwhile, Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi expressed grief over the officer's martyrdom and extended condolences to his family.\n\nThe minister sought a report from the Islamabad inspector general of police and directed authorities to ensure the suspect's early arrest.\n\nHe also instructed police to ensure that the martyr's family is provided justice without delay.\n\nThe post PAF officer martyred during bid to rescue woman from alleged abductor appeared first on HUM News English.",
